CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority to Taiwanese Application Serial No. 108129818, filed on Aug. 21, 2019. The entirety of the application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.

BACKGROUND 1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to semiconductor packaging techniques, and, more particularly, to an electronic package, an electronic packaging module having the electronic package, and a method for fabricating the electronic package.

2. Description of the Prior Art

With the rapid development in electronic industry, electronic products are having various functions of high performance. In order to meet the miniaturization packaging standard required by an electronic package, a wafer level packaging (WLP) technique was brought to the market.

FIGS. 1A to 1E are cross-sectional views illustrating a method for fabricating a semiconductor package 1 by employing a wafer-level packaging technique according to the prior art.

As shown in FIG. 1A, a thermal release tape 100 is formed on a carrier 10.

Then, a plurality of communication chips 11 are disposed on the thermal release tape 100. Each of the communication chips 11 has an inactive surface 11 b and an active surface 11 a that opposes the inactive surface 11 b, has a plurality of electrode pads 110 thereon, and is adhered onto the thermal release tape 100.

As shown in FIG. 1B, an encapsulation resin 14 is formed on the thermal release tape 100 and encapsulates the communication chips 11.

As shown in FIG. 1C, the encapsulation resin 14 is baked, the thermal release tape 100 is cured, and the thermal release tape 100 and the carrier 10 are removed, to expose the active surfaces 11 a of the communication chips 11.

As shown in FIG. 1D, a circuit structure 16 is disposed on the encapsulation resin 14 and the active surfaces 11 a of the communication chips 11 and electrically connected to the electrode pads 110. Then, an insulation protection layer 18 is formed on the circuit structure 16, with a portion of a surface of the circuit structure 16 exposed from the insulation protection layer 18 for conductive elements 17, such as solder balls, to be bonded thereto.

As shown in FIG. 1E, a singulation process is performed along a cutting path L shown in FIG. 1D, to obtain a plurality of semiconductor packages 1.

As the data network scaling to meet the ever-increasing bandwidth demand, the drawbacks of a copper data channel (e.g., the circuit of the circuit structure 16) are more and more significant. Signal attenuation and crosstalk due to radiation electromagnetic energy has become the main obstacles that the designer of this system has to address. For instance, the radiation electromagnetic energy between the communication chips 11 causes signal attenuation and crosstalk.

Balancing, encoding and shielding techniques were developed to ease the signal attenuation and crosstalk. However, these techniques need relatively large power, are complex, suffer cable capacity loss, merely improve the suitability for a local area, and has limited scalability.

As technology evolving, the market is in great need of optical communication, and the communication equipment, to which the fiber communication is applied, has low speed (100 Gbps) and cannot meet the need.

According to the prior art, the communication chips 11 are disposed in a same packaging structure. If one of the communication chips 11 malfunctioned, the whole semiconductor package 1, including the remaining well-functioning communication chips 11, will be discarded. The semiconductor package 1 thus has a high replacing cost.

Therefore, how to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art is becoming an urgent issue in the art.

A method for fabricating an electronic package, comprising: disposing a plurality of conductive pillars and at least one first electronic component on a carrying board; forming on the carrying board an encapsulation layer encapsulating the first electronic component and the conductive pillars, the encapsulation layer having a first surface, a second surface opposing the first surface and bonded to the carrying board, with end surfaces of the conductive pillars exposed from the first surface of the encapsulation layer; disposing a circuit structure on the first surface of the encapsulation layer and electrically connecting the circuit structure to the conductive pillars and the first electronic component, wherein the encapsulation layer has a lateral surface adjoining the first surface and the second surface; disposing a laser component and an optoelectronic component on the circuit structure and electrically connecting the laser component and the optoelectronic component to the circuit structure, wherein the laser component and the optoelectronic component are separated from each other; and removing the carrying board.
 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising providing a plurality of conductive bodies and bonding and electrically connecting the conductive bodies to the first electronic component.
 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the conductive bodies are embedded in the encapsulation layer and electrically connected to the circuit structure.
 17. The method of claim 14, wherein the plurality of conductive pillars surround the first electronic component.
 18. The method of claim 14, wherein at least one of the laser component and the optoelectronic component protrudes from the lateral surface of the encapsulation layer.
 19. The method of claim 14, further comprising disposing a circuit portion on the second surface of the encapsulation layer and electrically connecting the circuit portion to the conductive pillars.
 20. The method of claim 19, further comprising disposing a plurality of conductive elements on the circuit portion.
 21. The method of claim 14, further comprising disposing a carrying structure on the second surface of the encapsulation layer.
 22. The method of claim 21, further comprising disposing a second electronic component on the carrying structure.
